At the center of contentious debates concerning U.S. asylum policy are immigration judges, bureaucrats who decide life and death cases on a daily basis. Congress, the executive and the courts compete for influence over these key actors — administrative judges distinct from those examined in much of the bureaucratic control literature. They are hired, fired, promoted or demoted by executive officials; face congressional oversight; and must follow circuit law. We argue that, because of the fear of reversal, immigration judges will look most to the courts in the decision-making process. Our results support our theory. Examining over 900,000 immigration judges’ decisions, we find that, although IJs are influenced by a fear of pushback from the elected branches, the impact is conditional on circuit preferences. Our findings inform scholarly understanding of judicial behavior and bureaucratic accountability, and support the pursuit of judicial independence and due process in immigration courts.
在有关美国庇护政策的激烈辩论中,处于中心位置的是移民法官,他们是每天裁决生死案件的官僚。国会、行政部门和法院争夺对这些关键角色的影响力——行政法官不同于许多官僚控制文献中研究的那些人。由行政机关聘任、解聘、晋升、降职;面对国会的监督;而且必须遵守巡回法律。我们认为,由于担心判决被推翻,移民法官在决策过程中将最倚重法院。我们的结果支持我们的理论。研究了90多万名移民法官的判决,我们发现,尽管移民法官受到来自民选分支机构的阻力的恐惧的影响,但这种影响是有条件的。我们的研究结果有助于对司法行为和官僚问责制的学术理解,并支持对移民法院司法独立和正当程序的追求。

This paper considers whether the rules governing state political parties help to explain primary election outcomes. I theorize political parties will see lower levels of competition during primary elections when they have bylaws that centralize power within the state central committee. To test this expectation, I created a dataset of state-level party rules by collecting and coding provisions within the bylaws of all 100 state-level Republican and Democratic parties. I operationalize party centralization of power as whether or not elected officials are represented within each party’s formal membership, their state central committee, and whether or not each party has an endorsement or neutrality policy when it comes to contested primaries. I find the centralization of party power does correlate with lower levels of competition in primary elections for the House of Representatives in 2018 and 2020. Specifically, parties are more likely to see uncontested primaries when they guarantee ex-officio state committee membership to their co-partisan elected officials and are more likely to see fewer candidates in general when they guarantee ex-officio state committee membership to their co-partisan elected officials and when they do not have rules that require the state central committee to remain neutral during contested primary elections. While evaluating the causes of this trend is beyond the scope of this paper, these findings appear to be driven by Republican primaries.
本文考虑了州政党管理规则是否有助于解释初选结果。我的理论是,当政党有章程将权力集中在州中央委员会内时,它们在初选期间的竞争水平会降低。为了测试这种期望,我通过收集和编码所有100个州共和党和民主党的章程中的条款,创建了一个州一级政党规则数据集。我将政党权力集中化视为当选官员是否在每个政党的正式成员、州中央委员会中有代表,以及每个政党在有争议的初选中是否有支持或中立政策。我发现,政党权力的集中确实与2018年和2020年众议院初选的竞争水平较低有关。明确地当政党保证其共同党派民选官员的州委员会当然成员资格时,他们更有可能看到无竞争的初选,当他们保证其共同政党民选官员的国家委员会当然成员身份时,以及当他们没有要求州中央委员会保持中立的规则时,他们更可能看到更少的候选人在有争议的初选期间。虽然评估这一趋势的原因超出了本文的范围,但这些发现似乎是由共和党初选推动的。

There is significant disagreement on the moderating role of institutions on policy responsive- ness, yet overwhelmingly research in state politics has focused on single institutions. This project leverages a new aggregate scale of state institutions to evaluate if the collective insti- tutional context moderates the influence of public opinion on policy. I use a recently released latent scale of institutional context and find that high levels of accountability pressure strongly strengthen public opinion’s influence on policy for both economic and social policy, while the strength of a state’s checks and balance system is largely unrelated to policy responsiveness. These results demonstrate the importance of incorporating aggregate institutional design into our understanding of the role of institutions in state politics, and that collectively institutions play a large role in determining how public opinion is translated into policy.
关于机构在政策响应性方面的调节作用,存在着重大分歧,但绝大多数国家政治研究都集中在单一机构上。该项目利用新的国家机构总规模来评估集体机构背景是否调节了公众舆论对政策的影响。我使用了最近发布的一个潜在的制度背景量表,发现高水平的问责压力大大加强了公众舆论对经济和社会政策政策的影响,而一个国家的制衡体系的强度在很大程度上与政策反应无关。这些结果表明,将总体制度设计纳入我们对制度在国家政治中作用的理解的重要性,以及集体制度在决定如何将公众舆论转化为政策方面发挥着重要作用。

We identify in-person early voting and no-excuse mail voting as antidotes for the depressing effect inclement weather has on voter turnout and the Republican dividend that accompanies rain and snow on Election Day. We offer and test an explanation for how voters utilize early voting to anticipate and avoid the costs of voting in bad weather. Replicating and extending Gomez et al (2007) analysis through the 2016 election, we confirm the remedial effect in-person early voting and to a lesser degree no-excuse mail voting has on turnout and the Republican advantage when bad weather coincides with Election Day. Our work makes an important contribution to understanding how election laws effect voter participation. We discuss how taking seriously treatment effect heterogeneity both in theoretical and empirical analyses might contribute to our understanding of the effects of election laws on voter participation.
我们认为,面对面提前投票和无理由邮寄投票是恶劣天气对选民投票率和选举日雨雪带来的共和党红利的抑制作用的解药。我们提供并测试了选民如何利用提前投票来预测和避免在恶劣天气下投票的成本的解释。复制并扩展Gomez等人(2007)对2016年大选的分析,我们证实了亲自提前投票和在较小程度上无借口邮寄投票对投票率的补救作用,以及在恶劣天气与选举日重合时共和党的优势。我们的工作对理解选举法如何影响选民参与做出了重要贡献。我们讨论了在理论和实证分析中认真对待处理效果的异质性如何有助于我们理解选举法对选民参与的影响。

A central challenge for citizens is to understand how their political system works. The classic “Levels of Conceptualization” measure proposed in The American Voter provided an answer for White Americans in the 1950s, but has limited relevance today for citizens of non-European ancestry. Expanding on the work of Campbell et al., this paper develops a measure of Political Conceptualization that combines views about parties and candidates with views on personal identity and ethnic fairness. The measure is based on open-ended responses in a survey of Asian Americans and Latinos. Results show how, across these quite different domains of politics, citizens vary in their Political Conceptualizations from narrow and concrete to broad and abstract. Results highlight the challenge for political organizers in building coalitions among citizens who vary in their understanding of how politics works.
公民面临的一个核心挑战是了解他们的政治制度是如何运作的。《美国选民》中提出的经典“概念化水平”措施在20世纪50年代为美国白人提供了答案,但在今天对非欧洲血统的公民来说意义有限。在坎贝尔等人工作的基础上,本文提出了一种政治概念化的衡量标准,将对政党和候选人的看法与对个人身份和种族公平的看法相结合。这项措施是基于一项针对亚裔美国人和拉丁裔美国人的开放式调查。研究结果表明,在这些截然不同的政治领域中,公民的政治概念从狭隘和具体到广泛和抽象各不相同。结果突显了政治组织者在公民之间建立联盟的挑战,这些公民对政治运作的理解各不相同。

Is approval of Donald J. Trump associated with support for political violence? If so, what explains the link between Trump approval and political violence? Using an original, nationally representative survey of over 1,500 adults in the United States we produce two findings. First, individuals who express approval for Trump are also significantly more likely to endorse positive descriptors for the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol and are more likely express support for the use of political violence more broadly. Second, the effects of Trump approval on support for the use of political violence are mediated through racist and xenophobic attitudes. Trump supporters in the study disproportionately exhibit racist and xenophobic/anti-foreigner attitudes, and these attitudes are associated with a positive endorsement of both January 6 and the use of political violence.

Is There a Tradeoff Between Policy Responsiveness and Government Effectiveness? Evidence From the American States 政策响应和政府效率之间存在权衡吗?来自美国的证据

Citizens in a democracy expect elected officials will be responsive to their political opinions and govern in an effective way that improves their quality of life. However, a government that is too responsive to public sentiments may, in practice, be unable to govern effectively and promote societal well-being. This study is the first attempt to date to empirically evaluate this important potential tradeoff. Using newly developed measures of public opinion and public policy liberalism in the American states over time and a diverse battery of societal outcomes as well as multiple estimation strategies and timeframes, I find a weak and directionally inconsistent statistical relationship between policy responsiveness and government effectiveness. These findings have significant normative and theoretical implications because they suggest there is not a tradeoff between a government responding to its citizens’ opinions and it governing effectively by promoting citizens’ well-being.
民主国家的公民期望民选官员对他们的政治意见作出回应,并以有效的方式进行治理,以提高他们的生活质量。然而,一个对公众情绪过于敏感的政府在实践中可能无法有效地治理和促进社会福祉。这项研究是迄今为止第一次尝试对这一重要的潜在权衡进行实证评估。使用美国各州民意和公共政策自由主义的新发展措施,以及各种社会结果以及多种评估策略和时间框架,我发现政策响应和政府有效性之间存在微弱且方向不一致的统计关系。这些发现具有重要的规范和理论意义,因为它们表明,在政府回应公民的意见和通过促进公民福祉来有效治理之间,并不存在权衡。

War Metaphors (What Are They Good For?): Militarized Rhetoric and Attitudes Toward Essential Workers During the Covid-19 Pandemic 战争隐喻(它们有什么好处?):在Covid-19大流行期间,军事化的言论和对基本工作者的态度

During the COVID-19 pandemic, leaders and society at large invoked militarized rhetoric and war metaphors to elevate essential workers and inspire collective action. Using a survey experiment we investigate whether this type of framing affects public views about (1) individual responsibilities, (2) targeted polices, and (3) perceptions of those called heroes and soldiers. We find that the war metaphor has minimal effects on public attitudes toward policies and individual actions in response to the pandemic. Framing the response in militaristic terms does, however, appear to affect perceptions of essential workers. Counter to our hypotheses, subjects who saw essential workers called heroes or soldiers viewed them as more motivated by compensation rather than service, and expressed less respect for them, than respondents in the control. These findings, including the nulls, make important contributions to our understanding of the limits of framing effects in a polarized context.
在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间,领导人和整个社会都使用军事化言论和战争隐喻来提升核心工作者的地位,激励集体行动。通过一项调查实验,我们调查了这种类型的框架是否会影响公众对以下方面的看法:(1)个人责任,(2)有针对性的政策,以及(3)对那些被称为英雄和士兵的看法。我们发现,战争隐喻对公众对应对大流行的政策和个人行动的态度的影响微乎其微。然而,用军国主义的措辞来构建回应,似乎确实影响了人们对核心工人的看法。与我们的假设相反,看到被称为英雄或士兵的关键工作者的受试者认为他们更受报酬而不是服务的激励,并且对他们的尊重比对照组的受访者要少。这些发现,包括零值,对我们理解框架效应在两极分化背景下的局限性做出了重要贡献。

Candidate Repositioning, Valence, and a Backfire Effect from Criticism 候选人的重新定位、价值与批评的反噬效应
IF 1.5 3区 社会学 Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-09-14 DOI: 10.1177/1532673X221125222

Politicians who switch policy positions are often criticized for being inconsistent “flip-floppers”, which suggests a valence penalty for repositioning. Using a survey experiment with six treatment conditions and a sample of 2694 respondents, results show that candidates receive an increase in favorability and perceived competency when holding a consistent position on asylum seekers from the campaign to holding office. Repositioning on asylum seekers reduces favorability and perceived competency. However, in treatment conditions where the candidate is criticized for “flip-flopping” by unelected groups, candidate favorability improves relative to a treatment condition where only the repositioning is presented. These results suggest that a backfire effect might occur from criticisms. This backfire occurs on average across all respondents.

改变政策立场的政客经常被批评为前后矛盾的“摇摆不定的人”,这意味着对重新定位的惩罚。通过对六种待遇条件和2694名受访者进行的调查实验,结果显示,候选人在竞选到任职期间对寻求庇护者持一致立场时,其好感度和感知能力都有所提高。对寻求庇护者的重新定位降低了好感度和感知能力。然而,在候选人因“摇摆不定”而受到未经选举的群体批评的治疗条件下,与只提出重新定位的治疗条件相比,候选人的好感度有所提高。这些结果表明,批评可能会产生适得其反的效果。平均而言,所有受访者都会出现这种适得其反的情况。这项研究有助于研究抵消重新定位负面影响的机制。

Using a survey experiment with six treatment conditions and a sample of 2694 respondents, results show that candidates receive an increase in favorability and perceived competency when holding a consistent position on asylum seekers from the campaign to holding office. Repositioning on asylum seekers reduces favorability and perceived competency. However, in treatment conditions where the candidate is criticized for “flip-flopping” by unelected groups, candidate favorability improves relative to a treatment condition where only the repositioning is presented. These results suggest that a backfire effect might occur from criticisms. This backfire occurs on average across all respondents.

Patriotism is conceived of as a national-level concept. I posit that people hold similarly strong feelings toward their municipal area. Based on long-standing the- ories of patriotism in national politics, I show how local patriotism influences local politics. Using novel preregistered survey data from an online sample matched to nationally representative data in terms of gender, age, and race, I show that people have feelings of love, indifference, or hate toward their municipality. I also find a strong positive correlation between loving one’s municipality and partici-pation in local politics, civic participation, and trust in local government. I also conducted two preregistered survey experiments that show that priming feelings of love and/or hate towards one’s town strongly motivates the willingness to sac-rifice to solve local collective action problems. Specifically, stimuli that evoked these feelings made participants much more likely to donate the payment they earned from completing the survey to solve a town problem. These results show the crucial importance of local patriotism for understanding local politics.
爱国主义被认为是一个国家层面的概念。我认为人们对他们的城市地区也有同样强烈的感情。基于爱国主义在国家政治中的悠久历史,我展示了地方爱国主义如何影响地方政治。我使用一个新的预先登记的在线样本调查数据,与性别、年龄和种族方面的全国代表性数据相匹配,表明人们对自己的市政当局有爱、冷漠或仇恨的感觉。我还发现,热爱自己的城市与参与当地政治、公民参与和对当地政府的信任之间存在着强烈的正相关关系。我还进行了两项预先登记的调查实验,结果表明,对自己所在城镇的爱和/或恨情绪强烈激发了解决当地集体行动问题的意愿。具体来说,唤起这些感受的刺激使参与者更有可能将完成调查所得的款项捐赠给解决城镇问题。这些结果表明,地方爱国主义对理解地方政治至关重要。
